Chapter 166

In a remote corner of Honghuang, a skeletal creature turned its head full circle, its bones clicking and rattling as if speaking, though no one could understand it. Ever since Honghuang underwent its great upgrading, it had become so immense that nobody knew where its boundaries truly lay. A second, a third, a tenth... As it turned out, this location was a spatial rift leading directly to the Bone Realm of the outer cosmos. Legend had it that before the primordial chaos was parted, the universe had already existed, though no records remained of it. The previous cosmic civilization had lacked a Honghuang; instead, it was a dark-spot universe, and prior to that era there must have been still other cosmic civilizations. That universe had undoubtedly suffered a devastating catastrophe, and among its inhabitants were supreme cultivators who, owing to the overwhelming destructive energy, had been forced to abandon their fleshly bodies and survive in their present skeletal forms. Though these skeletal cultivators had managed to survive, they had lost many of their abilities. They had continually searched for a way to reclaim their former glory. Resources in the Bone Realm were meager, which was why they had finally opened a spatial rift leading into Honghuang.
